TRAFFIC CONSULTANT'S REPORT
Traffic engineering firm Neel-Schaffer Llc. has completed its study of the tricky Fairhope Avenue/Ingleside Drive intersection.
Recommendations are for either a right-turn-only from Ingleside design (A) -- or a split-intersection (B); more elaborate roundabout designs were included too.
Less-costly alternatives A and B could be done within existing right of ways; alternatives C and D would require acquisition of more right-of-way from adjacent property owners (Alt. D, a unique double "peanut roundabout" would require less right of way).
Through traffic on Ingleside would be prohibited by alternative A -- but still possible with B.
A traffic signal was not considered at all due to low traffic volume on Ingleside, according to the report.
